My 1917 Artillery
 

I picked this up from a family member of a vet.
Grip and Mag do not match and it has the Grip chip but it is my first Art. and I am beginning to like Art's very much. I plan on taking it to the range shortly and see how it shoots. Hope you like it

congraulations! a real nice one! thanks for sharing pics with us.
by the way, I don�´�´t shoot my collectable guns because I�´�´m afraid of breaking something using modern ammunition.

EW,
Nice looking Arty! The suffix letter is f.

EW,

Nice piece. Congtratulations !

BTW...Jan Still is collecting info. on LP-08 fine tuned sights (front and back sights) over on his Gun Boards on the 1917's :

You might want to give him your info.

I could not tell if your front sight was fine-tune type or not...

Front sight

Is this one fine tuned?

Rear Sight
 

I'm guessing, front no and rear yes. Is that corrrect?

Yep...even the screw on your rear sight still has some fire-blue left on its finish...!

Nice Arty! As you can see from my post below, I just picked up one of those too.

Nice artillery! Keep it well oiled and pampered.

Very nice artillery, I would like one!
